Notes
As we started talking about what we are creating. we used the example of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. We agreed that this manifesto could be a declaration of this kind (to leave open the possibility of people/orgs signing it or not, and other ways for it to be used).
We started to brainstorm the topics of articles that we want to include in the manifesto. Here are some of those topics with some life-cycle buckets:
Planning Have a vision of success for it Follow principles of user centered design
Creation Put a date on it (created, updated, exp, etc) Meta data (date, why, context, who) Reference-ready (responsive formats)Planning don't be exploitative of communities/beneficiaries Community engagement
Release Licensing
Archiving
Then we started drafting the articles:
To the best of your ability, make the resources accessible to communities that would find it useful. Accessibility includes physical access to the resource, language, relevance, findability (reference-ready), ability to reuse and repurpose.
Be transparent on motivations for creation, including who created it, who supported it (monetarily or otherwise), and the context in which it is created and for whom.
Put community at the center by identifying the benefit to the community and including them in the creation and use of the resource.
In creation process, be aware of the format and structure so that beneficiaries can localize, reference, reuse, repurpose.

Food for thought
- concepts, problems
- questions to ask frequently
- preventions: what do you actually do in concrete terms to prevent these things from happening
- reactions: responsible responses for when things go wrong
